The leather looks amazing! My thrifty inner voice is griping like hell about the additional costs of shipping to UK, and any potential returns issues, but I suspect that my bag-loving heart might end up winning the battle in the long run. It just looks so lush :loveeyes:

I hear you; shipping costs drive me nuts. Is there anyone in the States who could hold it for you?

I'm not sure about what you're looking to spend, but the quality of the bag and the lower price range (comparatively speaking) would make me lean toward just forking over the extra bucks to pay for shipping.

Your post got me thinking about this bag and now I'm seriously thinking of ordering one myself. !! :)

Just ordered one (thanks Lips and Mom2jtv, for enabling/introducing it to me in this thread!), I had been looking for a tote this size for a while now. Love the price (I was even considering 2-3K+ Hermes bags!), and no shipping charge in the US! Will post pics when it arrives.

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone, particularly folks in the US, had any experience of this label?

I'm considering buying a tote from them because I like the look of the leather and the simple design. But shipping costs at over 60 bucks and import duties mean that I'm not going to be returning it if it's not quite right, so I'd rather not make any mistakes.

My only concern is about the leather - how it feels, smells, ages, sags etc. If anyone has any knowledge of this brand, please do let me know.

Many thanks...

I have been looking at these and wished they came in black! so I might just get one.

Though two things are stopping me now
1) the tote is heavy - some reviews say it's heavy on its own
2) how will the black leather wear? Brown leather ages way better than black. But I really need a classic black tote rather than the cognac brown he has. If dark brown was offered that would be my ultimate choice.

i have this bag in black. had it for about 3+ months. i was looking for a tough, raw hide tote and this hit the spot. it just gets more beautiful the more i use it (every day). if you want an every day tough tote, with a structured bottom, quality stitching and a hand made look, this is it.

I'm interested in this bag in black. Would you be willing to post a pic of how yours looks after using it for a few months? I would very much appreciate it! TIA! :hugs:

Hi! Here are some pics, let me know if you'd like to see more. I'm uploading from my phone they appear to be uploading sideways only, sorry!
